Getting the power down! WHAT TYRES??
- Thread starter ME53LLN

I'm using Goodyear eagle f1's asy 2's I'm still standard power wise but has excellent grip wet or dry.Obviously if you hoof it in first and second I'd imagine there going to spin up.But think these tyres are a great choice.having done research they seem to be very popular around SCN members.
They are very good tyres, but without an LSD you WILL struggle for grip out of corners no matter what tyres you put on as you basically end up with one wheel drive. Time to master throttle control 
Braking and corner entry speeds are good fun with them compared to budgets though, especially in this weather
Michelin PSS are apparently another very good option - not tried them yet but a lot of reviews rate them higher than the GY ASY2s

Yep I've got them on my FR+ CR170 with a Revo Stage 1, great type but with lots of torque in wet/damp conditions they do of course struggle in you accelerating quickly. The only way I see of getting round that issue properly for me is next time buy something with 4 wheel drive
These are supposed to be very good, although they adjust caster not toe.

So you recommend the walk kit, might look into it, so its ether f1s or super sports, which one best in this weather?
I'd say the f1's this time of year mate but it's all down to personal choice really.what ever you pick between the two your not going to be disappointed.
Ive just fitted my second full set of Uniroyal Rainsport 3's. To be honest, they are slightly softer in the side walls that the likes of Eagle F1's etc. But the grip is amazing. 'A' grip in the wet too. Only downside is they wear out a bit quicker than other tyres Ive tried. I'm running APR stage 1. £67 a tyre on camskill at the minute.

Whats the Rim Protector like on these Uniroyals?
Every Pic I see makes the rim protector look non existent especially when comparing them to the Goodyear F1 Asymmetric's. I've heard good things on the Uniroyals but an adequate rim protector is an important factor when I buy a tyre.
Wouldn't say they are non existent, but then again I don't make a habit of hitting kerbs.
